Sewing My First Hoodie ✨

Just finished sewing my very first hoodie 🍂✂️ and I am obsessed! It’s oversized (think boyfriend-fit vibes) and made from heavyweight French terry—like the comfort of a weighted blanket without the heat of synthetic fleece. 🧸✨

Even better? 👉 It’s 100% cotton, made right here in the USA, with fabric sourced from a family-owned cotton mill that ethically makes + dyes everything with non-toxic processes. 💛 Slow fashion, cozy feels, and something I can proudly say I made myself. 🪡🧵

Would you rock this oversized fit? 👀👇

Follow aly.swim on Instagram for my release date of custom orders of this new sweatshirt along with a few other new drops!
